Shield

Black was the color of the facings of the Engineers in the Civil War. The anchor and oars was the badge of the Engineers and Pontoniers of the Army of the Potomac. The wavy pale on the upper part of the shield recalls the Marne which the regiment bridged and the seven-pointed star from the cap badge of the Australians recalls the cooperation on the Amiens front.
